Odell Beckham Jr. is joining the Browns: 3 things you should know

Neal Copeland

According to National Football League reporter Adam Schefter, the New York Giants got a first and third-round pick as well as starting safety Jabril Peppers.

If you are anything like me, you got the notification that the New York Giants had traded Odell Beckham Jr. and you simply fell to the floor in disgust and shock. He finished with 16 receptions for 340 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games.

It's a bad look for the Giants, who just signed Odell to a longterm deal six months ago. With B.J. Hill, Dalvin Tomlinson, and RJ McIntosh still young and inexperienced, the pass-rush seems to be the weakest point on the team.

Beckham most likely would have made both potential touchdown catches in the Super Bowl that Cooks failed to haul in. I think I see what they're doing, pivoting to make Saquon Barkley the face of the franchise and building an offensive line to let Barkley go wild.

But the Giants have three of the top 37 draft picks in April, and 12 overall.

Beckham became the fastest wideout to eclipse 5,000 career receiving yards since the 1970 merger and eclipsed 1,000 yards in every season except for his injury-shortened 2017.

"If things like that are able to happen and the team can make it happen, then why not?" The rhetoric about how they "didn't sign Odell to trade him" proved worthless. After finishing 7-8-1 in 2018, the Browns signed free-agent running back Kareem Hunt before trading for Beckham.

The trade, which can't be consummated until Wednesday afternoon, gives the Browns a similar one-two punch to the one Dorsey assembled in Kansas City with Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill.
